ROKAH KARATE
Our Programs:
Train with a Champion
Sensei Avi Rokah lives and breathes karate. As a prodigy of Master Hidetaka Nishiyama, he is one of the most sought-after instructors in the world (see Seminars). In addition to being a former world and five-time US champion, Sensei Avi is also the technical director of the World Budo Karate Association, and the president of the World Traditional Karate Federation. Sensei Avi studied for three decades under Master Nishiyama, who, in turn, was a top student of the father of the Shotokan style, Master Gichin Funakoshi. This continuity of instruction provides our pupils with a direct link to the founding of modern karate. Due to this lineage, in our karate classes for all ages and levels we teach only the purest form of karate.
Train Like A Champion
Rokah Karate is a traditional Shotokan school that offers karate classes for all ages and levels. Sensei Avi teaches every adult class himself. He and his wife, Ruth, instruct the children’s classes together. At Rokah Karate, we teach that technique defeats strength and skill conquers speed. More than a mere self-defense program, training in karate fosters mental toughness and emotional strength. Or you can just call it grit.
Rokah Karate Classes For Kids And Adults are Rewarding
Karate is a moving meditation, a way of life that stresses athletic, spiritual and character growth. You will learn how to punch and kick, yes, but you will also learn how to move efficiently and in a manner that protects you against injury. In karate, the ultimate opponent is oneself. It is about being the best one can be and improving every day. The skills one develops in the dojo translate to every facet of one’s life.
Rokah Karate Is A Community
Rokah Karate is a welcoming, friendly and supportive venue in which to practice your art. We believe that karate is not only for top-level athletes, but it’s for everyone, no matter their age or fitness level. This isn’t just talk, but as our diverse body of students attests, it’s an ethos by which we live.
Rokah Karate Is Fun!
We are passionate about teaching karate classes for all ages and levels. Your success is important to us. Come to the dojo and see for yourself. We look forward to meeting you.
Playing sports has a range of physical and emotional benefits.
